A
U.S. police registry would fail without changes in states
By NOMAAN MERCHANT
Associated Press
HOUSTON (AP) — Without major changes in almost every
state, a national police misconduct database like what
the White House and Congress have proposed after Ge-
orge Floyd’s death would fail to account for thousands
of problem officers. Lawmakers nationwide are struggling
with how to reform policing following massive demon-
strations, increased calls for change and a stark shift in
public opinion on the topic. Democrats want to create a
policing registry that would catalog disciplinary records,
firings and misconduct complaints; President Donald
Trump’s executive order calls on the attorney general to
create a “database to coordinate the sharing of infor-
mation” between law enforcement agencies.
Any eventual registry that emerges would depend on
states reporting into it. But states and police departments
track misconduct very differently, and some states cur-
rently don’t track it at all. The result is a lack of reliable of-
ficial data and a patchwork system in which officers can
stay employed even after being arrested or convicted of In this June 23, 2020 file photo, A woman holds up a sign saying “police the police” as she con-
